A BUSINESS group from China’s Qinghai Province is interested to invest in Sarawak.

Assistant Minister of Industrial Development (Investment and Promotion) Julaihi Narawi said the group is looking to invest in the State’s energy, food and agriculture industries.

The China Council for the Promotion of International Trade Qinghai Provincial Committee revealed its intentions during a recent meeting.

Qinghai Vice-Governor Wang Lingjun led the 18-member group — comprised of representatives from the various industries based in the province.

The province has a huge population of 5.6 million — a substantial number of whom are Muslims, great news for the Tanjung Manis Halal Hub.

“They also have a well-developed halal hub and this offers other opportunities for us to market our halal products to the north-west part of China,” the Assistant Minister is quoted as saying.

Well if it all works out, the Qinghai investors will be among a growing number from the People’s Republic of China investing in our State.

They join other foreign investors from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, the Middle East and more who are seeking to put serious money in Sarawak.

No wonder Sarawak had the most investments compared to other states last year.

Do you think that investors would even look at Sarawak if our State did not have political stability and good governance?

Here are some other reasons investors choose Sarawak:

Prudent Financial Management

Rapid Economic Growth

Business Friendly Government

Good Delivery System

Modern Infrastructure and Excellent Facilities

Bountiful Natural Resources

Young and Trainable Workforce

Generous Incentives for Investment
